always easy when it comes to the military questions i think in particular there are challenges and trust deficits to overcome. but broadly i think the general trust of the development politically is quite positive. >> what are some of the resources in the arctic? >> lots of oil and gas for a start and green land also uranium, gold, pretty much everything you can think of is likely to be in the arctic and because it is under unexplored there is the chance that quite a lot of substances will be discovered but getting that this is very difficult and expensive. there are lots of environmental risks associated with it. so the fact that it's there doesn't necessarily imply that it will be produced. >> with the militarization of the arctic? has that happened? >> welford years ago in the height of the cold war there were probably more than there are now so what you have seen is it is important militarily because it's a good place for the submarines to hide to destroy russia or the united states or london. now that area is over so that kind of military infrastructure is no longer necessary in the arctic b

deficit. it's now $200 billion smaller than it was estimated just in february, $642 billion is the projection for the current fiscal year. that's 4% of gross domestic product, which is less than half in both dollar terms and percentage of gdp than it was in 2009, the first year of president obama's presidency. this shows that because of better than expected revenue, slower than expected growth in spending, in part because health care costs are slowing, the deficit is going to fall to 2.1% of gdp in 2015. so, we've had a lot of concern that we've discussed for years about the size of the u.s. deficit. it is now coming down pretty rapidly, bill. >> you know, it's symptomatic of our new normal here. we consider $3 gasoline cheap and we think $642 billion deficit is low. >> but as a percentage -- >> you know what i'm saying. >> yes, i do. but the historical standard -- >> john, does that mean that the gdp is expected to shrink -- >> what's that? >> when we talk about these percentages as a functio

the history of deficit is they tend to understate it. if you forecast it up three, up three, up three, then if you jack your forecast down to minus one then you look like a total goon. what the cbo will say is up three, up three, up three, they tend to understate their revisions, what we saw yesterday was probably about half of the revision that they really would've made if they went all in and did the fully rational forecast. probably throughout the rest of the year, you're going to see bigger reductions in the deficits about three months from now. and that's going to have a good effect on markets, it's going to help the fed have some space to ease up on quantitative easing and so on. >> do you share robert's concerns about the impact of the sequester and second half of the year? >> no, i do not. we're losing about 1.5% of gdp growth. about 1% is the tax hike at the end of the year and half of that is the sequester. so far, we've overpowered that with the wealth effect and the absence of the hippopotamus, and i think that'll continue. >
